Mick Abrahams, writing for the Friars Aylesbury website in 2008 said:

"I do remember playing Friars on a few occasions but I really can’t remember anything specifically with the exception that they were all good gigs. I am happy to say some good words about Friars for the website as I am a fairly local boy and played Aylesbury right from the age of 16!"

Mick Abrahams is still going strong occasionally re-joining forces with Jethro Tull's Ian Anderson. He is still touring. Andy Pyle went on to play in Wishbone Ash and also in Ken Hensley (Uriah Heep)'s band.

Pyle, along with Ron Berg also played with Juicy Lucy and Savoy Brown (who later played Friars)

Mick still gigs and has his 65th birthday party gig this summer in Milton Keynes featuring the original Blodwyn Pig !
